IT SOX Lead

About Fluidstack

We exist to make humanity more free. For most of human history, you farmed or you starved. Technology gave people more time for the things they wanted to do, instead of things they had to do. Powerful AI will be the biggest lever for human choice we've ever built - but only if models are aligned with what humanity actually wants. There are groups building AI who don't share these goals. Whoever deploys frontier compute infrastructure fastest will decide whether AI expands human freedom or shrinks it.
We're singularly focused on delivering 10 to 100s of GWs of compute faster than anyone else, rethinking every layer of the stack. We acquire power, design and build data centers, and operate them - with teams spanning hardware and software. Speed and scale are our key differentiators. Come be a part of building civilization-scale infrastructure for AI.
We hire people who care deeply about this problem space. If that is you, please apply!

About the Role

As our IT SOX Lead, you will own the design, implementation, and continuous improvement of Fluidstack's General IT Controls (GITC) framework. You'll operate at the intersection of infrastructure, compliance, and security - ensuring that the systems powering the future of AI are built on a foundation of rigorous, auditable control environments. This is a high-impact, high-ownership role on a lean team, partnering closely with Engineering, Security, Legal, and Finance to scale our controls program alongside our business.

Basic Qualifications:

• Deep hands-on expertise in GITC design and assessment, including access management, change management, IT operations, and logical security controls

• Strong command of control frameworks such as COSO, COBIT, NIST CSF, or ISO 27001
• Experience evaluating and documenting controls in complex, cloud-native or hybrid infrastructure environments (AWS, GCP, Azure)
• Demonstrated ability to translate technical control requirements into clear policies, procedures, and evidence packages for both technical and non-technical stakeholders
• Track record of building or maturing a controls program from the ground up, not just maintaining an inherited one

Preferred Qualifications:

• Relevant certification such as CISA, CISSP, CISM, or CPA with IT audit focus
• Familiarity with AI/ML infrastructure environments or GPU compute platforms
• Experience working within a fast-scaling startup or high-growth technology company
